I just caught this, on my second read-through (I've been out riding the motorcycle, tonight; just got in).
That's very sweet of you to say, but I can see how smart you are by how you speak/write... and if I can't, I'm clearly not as intelligent as I claim to be. You don't need validation from anyone.
That said, I enjoy every post you make on here, Rhonda. I mean that.
A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost
I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.
